Lancaster Vets4Pets

Hello! I graduated in 2014 in Bucharest, Romania. After graduation I found a big attraction for Soft Tissue Surgery and since 2015, I started to study in depth Reconstructive surgery and Wound Management, this being my main area of interest. I have been to many veterinary surgical events in Europe. I also wrote articles and I was involved in podcasts presenting different aspects about wound management. Also, I am an OCQ(V), I acquired the degree last year. I have been working in the UK since June 2018 and I joined Vets4Pets Lancaster in December 2021 as a Lead Vet.

Hi everyone! I’m Valeria and I graduated from the University of Turin, in Italy, in 2020. I joined the Vets4Pets family in September 2021 as a veterinary surgeon and I am super enthusiastic about being able to improve animals’ welfare. Being a vet has always been my dream and on top of enjoying every aspect of medicine, I also love how sweet and funny pets can be.
In my spare time you can find me playing with and cuddling my ginger cat, Diego. I also love travelling (I know what you are thinking, who doesn’t?), going to the movies and spending time with family and friends.

Andrew qualified as a Veterinary Surgeon in 2005 and has been working for Vets4Pets since 2009. He covers shifts for Lancaster, Preston, Lytham and Blackpool Vets4Pets. He has a wide range of experience, both in consulting and surgery and also performs some orthopaedic procedures.

Hello, my name is Marloes, I am a Veterinary Nurse here at Lancaster Vets4Pets. I am a keen consulting nurse, those that have met me before know that I struggle to stop talking!

Next to my general nursing duties I am also a clinical coach, supporting our student nurses in their journey to becoming a Registered Veterinary Nurse.

When I am not at work, I am an avid reader and I have a very special hobby, I do Historical Re-enactment where I portray a Norman Lady as well as a 12th century Norman warrior. I adopted a little blind cat in 2019 who has been keeping myself and my partner on our toes! I am looking forward meeting all of your pets!

Hi, my name is Claire. I graduated as an Registered Veterinary Nurse in October 2020, after 3 years of training on the FdSc degree course at Myerscough College.

When I am not working I love nothing more than being outdoors with my two crazy Spaniels.

Hello! I’m Becky, one of the Student Veterinary Nurses. I have been with the practice since February 2021 as an Animal Nursing Assistant, and recently started studying at Myerscough College. At home, I have 5 tarantulas, 2 guinea pigs; Tigger and Piglet, a Poochon called Knoxx, and an asthmatic Roborovski Dwarf Hamster named Hedwig. I love to spend my spare time with my animals and family, who refer to my house as ‘The Zoo’. My favourite thing about being a Student Veterinary Nurse is seeing all the animals who come to see us; the big, small, weird, and wonderful, and of course all the puppy and kitten cuddles!

Hi, my name is Fran. I am privileged to work with a great team here at Vets4Pets. I have a Chihuahua named Macy and a husband of many years.

Since I don't have any favourite animal, all kinds are loved (but not 8 legged ones), there will be a warm welcome for all clients and their pets.

Hi, I'm Vikki. I have 2 dogs, a 4 year old Border Collie called Johnny and a Springer Spaniel called Freddy, who is 2. I also have a cat called Tiggy, a rabbit called Ginger and a hamster called Jimmy. I love animals. I joined the Vets4Pets team on the 10th of September 2021. I could be one of the first people you talk to as I am one of the Client Care Advisors. In my spare time I enjoy spending time with my 2 boys supporting them at football and just chilling with a good film and having a glass of lemon gin. I look forward to seeing you all and your fur baby's.

After 40 years in a caring profession looking after people, I needed a change. I was delighted to be appointed to my role at Vets4Pets Lancaster. A role which combines many of the skills of my former life and my love of animals. The team here are remarkable, caring and animal centred. I am very pleased and proud to be a part of them.

Hi, I’m Liz and I started here at Vets4Pets in March 2022 after realising I really wanted to work with animals. I have two cats at home, 14 year old Bertie and now 4 month old Maeby, and a curly haired tarantula called Method Man! I love meeting new people and even more when they have their pets with them so this is a great job for me and I look forward to greeting you all to the practice.

I have worked for Vets4Pets for around ten years now, originally recruited to open the Lytham practice. Since then I have worked in various practices both in England and Scotland front of house. The practice with the most diverse range of patients was Drumchapel in Glasgow where we tended to a huge snowy owl for a beak trim, an Iguana for removal of an abscess and George the pig who would come in store and eat whatever he could from the shelves.

This practice in Lancaster is by far the largest and busiest of all practices I have worked in, and I am looking forward to my role of Practice Administrator and getting to know everyone and the surrounding area of Lancaster.
